In our series of interviews with Prestonians we spoke to Russell, bassist of band Sky Valley Mistress and engineer, about his experience of lockdown. Each video is a part of a longer interview yet alone each shares its own significance.
In this video Russell talks about the decline of independent venues. He talks about the struggle for local venues in Preston like the Ferret and the demise of many of Darwen’s venues. He also discusses what he thinks the pandemic will do for these places.
